INSTALLATION

2. Mark mounting location.

Position unit between joists and extend mounting brackets.
IMPORTANT: Position brackets so there will be an 1/8” gap
between bottom of housing and ceiling material.
Mark the top
of keyhole slot on all four mounting brackets.

The unit must not be installed above or inside the cooking area shown.

Do not install in a cooking area.

1/8" GAP

1. Install mounting brackets.

Slide the adjustable mounting brackets into the bracket channels
on the housing.
Bend the tabs on the cardboard protector and insert protector
into opening in housing.

from drywall spray and construction dust. Do not remove it until
after construction is completed.

NOT FOR USE IN

A COOKING AREA.

The unit will operate most quietly and efficiently when located

where the shortest possible duct run and minimum number of

elbows will be needed.
Use a roof cap or wall cap that has a built-in damper to reduce

backdrafts.
Plan to supply the unit with proper line voltage and appropriate

power cable.
